Barcelona's young prodigy Lamine Yamal has hailed Arsenal's Bukayo Saka as one of the best strikers outside of Barcelona players.

He was responding to remarks Saka made on  a BT Sports interview.  The hale ends star in response to a question about Lamine's performance in the Champions League semifinal's first leg match against Inter, has remarked that Lamine is 'unreal at his age'.

Others are Madrid's midfielder Jude Bellingham, Brazil's forward Endrick and Turkish midfielder Arder Guler. PSG's winger Desire Doue and Arsenal pair, midfielder Nwaneri, and defender Miles-Lewis Skelly.

Nothingham Forest striker Taiwo Awoniyi had been in a forced coma after he was taken in for surgery after the home game with relegation-bound Leicester on Sunday, for the injury he sustained in the 2-2 draw.

Gibbs-White had cancelled out Leicester city's Coady early goal in the 25th minute and shot ahead through Woods in the 56th minute only for Leicester to strike again through substitute Buonanotte in the 81st to ensure Leicester shared the points with the home team to the disbelief of the home fans and Forest's hope of a top five finish became more of an illusion.

Awoniyi was introduced as a late substitute after Leicester's equalizer, but the away team held on for an important draw.

 The striker slams nastily against the back post as he struggles to tap in an Elanga pass and seems incapable of going on, but he remains on the pitch for the duration of the match. He was taken to the hospital afterwards and had surgery.

He's reported to be in a stable condition.

Is there a difference between a child and a son?

In Christ, there is a lot of difference.

Though a child is either male or female, a son does not mean male alone. It also means female.

In John 1:12, "Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, He gave the right to become children of God" ( New Standard Edition).

In Rom 8:19, "For the earnest expectation of the creature waits for the manifestation of the sons of God".(NKJV )

Naturally, the characteristics of children are different from those of sons.

Children must not only be told what to do, but they must also be guided about what to do

And even then, he can refuse to do the job. If he decides to do it, he's also prone to make mistakes.

Every Christian starts by behaving like children. But they are expected to eventually become like sons.

But sons are different 

Sons know exactly what to do. When to do it and how to do it.

No one must remain a child. The state of being a child is precarious and dangerous.

It doesn't matter the physical level. He may be old or in a leadership position if his understanding of the things of God is low, he remains a child.

You cannot give them the position of any kind, it will end in disaster.

When you ask Christians who are still at this level to marry, don't expect a successful marriage.

By marriage, we're talking about one husband and one wife. 

Of course, there are lots of laughable situations people call marriage.

This should be only between sons and not between children.

A son knows and loves his father and all that his father is doing,

Father pampers his children but gives his sons instructions his sons gladly obey.

When sons make mistakes, they know and accept them and quickly turn a new leaf, but children wallow in their mistakes and are even indifferent, expecting people to understand them.

He expects people to love him and doesn't care whether others are loved. 

The prodigal son left home as a child but became mature and became a son before returning home, whereas the brother who remained at home is still a child and is still waiting to become a son.

Evident are his complaints.

A son knows everything the father has taught him, but a child is not sure.

God wants us to grow from children to sons so we will not be saying God loves some people more than He loves us.

Or that He doesn't love us because He chides us.

You can never be complacent when a thief is stealing your father's property. You know it is also your property. You also know it is teamwork. You don't need anyone to tell you what to do.

Of course, your father is God, and Christians are either children or sons.

You are not a bastard, you are just not a son yet. You're children. Children can never please their father until he becomes a son.

When he's hungry, for example, he'll steal from his father instead of asking his Father. Of course, Father is not angry because of what he stole but because of his attitude, and Father punishes children because he wants them to change.

Of course, if the child does not change, Father abandons the child, and an abandoned child becomes a vagabond.

It is far better to be a son rather than remain a child spiritually. An eighteen-year-old year old maybe a son, and a sixty-year-old may be a child.

Someone may be three years in Christ and be a son, whereas another who has spent thirty years in the lord may still be a child. This is the mystery.

However, it's a disaster for one to die as a child; we must endeavor to become sons of God.

You will never become a disgrace to your father and your family.

You know what to do without anyone telling you or showing you how.

The church in the wilderness was made up of children compared with the church in the upper room in Jerusalem, which was made up of sons.

What's the characteristic difference between them?

No wonder Father was very angry with them in the wilderness, to the extent that only two of them entered the promised land.

It is as bad as that.

Sons can look after themselves, but children can't. When children are children, when they are still physically children, it is better, but when they are still children at a physically old age, then it's a disaster.

There are a whole ramifications to those who are called 'sons' When we bring children and sons to a church level you want a church made up more of sons than children and it is manageable when a wife is still a child spiritually but it's a disaster for the husband and father of the house to still remain a spiritual child.

What should we do to change from being a child to becoming a son?

Carlo  Ancelotti has been announced as the coach of the Selecao to laid to rest the speculation that had surrounded the move in recent time.

Ancelotti is ending the season with Real Madrid but without a silverware, when the League Trophy and the King's Cup had gone to Barcelona.

The Madrid team is rumoured to be talking to Leverkusen's coach Xabi Alonso, who's a Madrid Legend and had led his German side to the title last year. It is considered that a deal can be announced as soon as the season is officially over.

Mikel Arteta was seriously being considered by the Madristas as a club side, but the Gunners boss may not be too inclined to ditch the north London club for now.
